I know it's been a while. . .




Ever feel like the above picture? That's how I felt a couple of Fridays ago. Things are looking better for me though, Thank goodness!!!

Yeah,Yeah. It's me. Yeah. You remember? You started following me about a week ago figuring I would update often. Well, I'm back. I've been busy. First things first, Did you hear my hubby got a job?? YAHOO! But wait, don't get too excited. When he got hired, they told him he was in a trial period for 90 days. Well, the owner told the service manager MY husband just wasn't working out. They cut him some checks...(decent ones I might add) and off Daniel went. The first day I heard about it, I balled like a baby. EVERYTHING made me cry. I'm better now. Finding a decent paying job is just going to take some time I guess. We'll find something. Don't you worry about us. I have learned that my life is in the Lord's hands. He knows me. He hears my prayers. He loves me.

Next update. We are preparing for VACATION! YIPPEE!!! My dad got us tickets to Pennsylvania. (He is from Philly.) The only drawback is we are all not on one flight. See we used to be. Then Daniel decided to stay home because he had this great job. So my dad refunded the tickets. Then since they let him go, he is free again. My dad being the nice dad that he is, bought him another ticket. WOW! The good news is that our tickets are about 15 minutes from each other. Not bad really. But guess who has the kids? Yup. You are correct. You are reading her blog. That would be ME! I'll survive. Don't you worry. I will have LOTS of fun things to do in 4 and a half hours. LOTS of things. . .

Next update: Remember when Mommy Mormon blogs had this swell giveaway for concert tickets?? Yeah, you remember? Marvin Goldstein? I won the tickets! I went June 6th with my hubby, it was FABULOUS! I am so glad I went. Just wish I had like 500 dollars to buy all the CD's from all the artists. WOW! What a group of talented people Marvin has worked with. Google Marvin. You won't regret it I'm sure.

So that's what I have been up to. I'm still around. Hanging out in the blog world AND Facebook of course. Drop me a line. Let me know you still exist too. I know,it's summer and the kids are home. Give them a popsicle to keep them occupied. Then join me in Blogland. I'll be seeing you!
What have you been doing lately my friend???

Sounds like things will be ok. I have been thinking about you. Have fun on your vacation!

Hang in there! When my husband lost a job when we were first married, I was DEVASTATED! Turns out it was the best thing that ever happened to us. When a door closed, the Lord opened a window. Start looking for windows, they will show up in the least expected places!

Hi! So... I just noticed you commented on my lame blog! I had no idea! (This is probably proof that I really don't know what I'm doing!) Do you have any idea how to make it so I know when people comment? You're the queen! Thanks for checking mine out! :)

How exciting that you got to go to Marvin Goldstein! Yay for you!

And I'm sorry about your husband's job. Good luck in finding a new one.

And have fun in Philly! Eat a yummy sandwich for me while you are there :)

Thanks for following! I love 'Blogland'!

Sorry about your husband's job than non-job. My husband hasn't lost his job but we have certainly been through the ringer with them and cut hours and blah blah! Hang in there!

Have a Philly sandwich for me! I'm glad your husband can at least be on the trip with you now! It's funny, my brother and his family are coming here form Florida and my mom and I were talking about how Jen (SIL) will need a couple days to recuperate from traveling. My husband was like, "A couple days?? How hard is it to fly??" I looked at him and said, "Oh, that's right, you've never been on a plane with children, have you!" That shut him right up! Good luck!
